Axe in Face 2 needed a lot of animated characters on the screen, without compromising quality or performance. We also needed the ability to change outfits for our main character with minimum effort. We accomplished all of these goals using Spine and we think that it is an excellent animation tool!Søren Lauge Boll, COO & Creative Producer

To create Bulb Boy we needed about a thousand of unique grayscale animations, many of them using frame-by-frame technique. The accesiblity and flexibility of Spine made it our best choice.Szymon & Artur, Bulbware

Spine saved us hundreds of hours and megabytes of shipped assets, thanks to its skeletal animation and skins system. On top of all that, the mesh deformation allowed us to add mind blowing 3D effects to our 2D game easily.Fede Puopolo, Game Designer & Animator

To make a great impression on kids we needed a natural and expressive animation. Spine with its smoothness and mesh deformation allowed us to achieve this without harming the development flexibility.Vyacheslav Borovik, Animator

Thanks to Spine we've made great performance in our game and minimized the size of the build as much as possible. All the characters together with the animation are less than 6% of the build size.Alexey Gulev & Alexander Titkov, Bring Me Cakes

We were able to quickly create movements for 2D characters. When revising the motion, it was helpful that we could make adjustments to bones and change timing in the dopesheet without needing to waste time redrawing, as we do for hand drawn animations.Masayuki Onoue, Director
